Meet The Team

Hi I’m Molly! I qualified as a Dental Therapist in 2024 at Newcastle University. Whilst studying, I won awards for the highest overall marks in the written examinations and clinical skills. I also won the Roy Howell medal for the best overall performance throughout the course. I then went on to complete my foundation training year, working in general practice, the community dental service, and the paediatric department at Newcastle Dental Hospital. I have a keen interest in treating anxious patients and children.

Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family and friends!

Hi! I’m Samantha! I qualified as a Dental Therapist in 2014 and gained further qualifications in Facial Aesthetics in 2018 and Teeth Whitening in 2020. I have been fortunate to work with supportive dentists throughout my career who have allowed me to use my full scope of practice from fillings and hygiene treatments to stain removal, teeth whitening, and composite bonding. I am also the Facial aesthetics provider here at Newburn Dental.

Outside of work I enjoy playing netball and spending time with my husband and two daughters!

Hi, I’m Alison! I studied Biochemistry before graduating from Dentistry at Newcastle University in 2014. I then undertook further training in Oral and Maxillofacial surgery, and community dentistry. I have a particular interest in treating nervous patients and have achieved a diploma in Sedation.

Outside of work I enjoy pilates and travelling!

Lee completed his dentistry degree at Newcastle University in 2014, having previously
completed a degree in Pharmacology. He has worked in the North East since qualifying and
began working at Newburn Dental Surgery in April 2021.
He enjoys the variety of the day, undertaking all aspects of general dentistry. Lee has a keen
interest in treating anxious patients, taking pleasure in seeing their oral health improve as
their anxiety diminishes.
Outside of dentistry he enjoys spending time with his nieces and nephew, cooking, going for
walks in and around the North East and attending wine tastings.

Hi everyone! I graduated from Newcastle University in 2014 before spending 2 years living and working in Tauranga, New Zealand. Whilst I was there, I invested in my skills, completing courses in One Visit Crowns and working with digital scanning technology. I returned to my hometown of Newcastle and began working at Newburn, and I am delighted to say I have worked here ever since.

I enjoy meeting and treating patients and making them feel as relaxed as they can. Having worked at Newburn for over 6 years I enjoy building relationships with my patients, hopefully making them feel at ease.

In my spare time, I have a 3-year-old who keeps me young! I enjoy going out for meals (when we can!), out for walks with our National Trust membership, and following Newcastle United! x

I graduated from Newcastle University in 2014 before completing my training with another year working in Sheffield. After returning for a brief spell in my hometown of Newcastle, I traveled to New Zealand where I spent two years working privately in Tauranga, North Island. There, I developed my skills with further courses in One-Visit Crowns (OVC’s), working with digital scanners (CEREC), and a number of restorative courses, all while embracing the ‘Kiwi’ culture and traveling at weekends. In recent years I have further progressed my career by training to provide Invisalign® clear aligners and Sleepwell anti-snoring devices. I pride myself on being a good communicator who makes his patients feel at ease. I believe dentistry should be minimally invasive and that the care I provide for my patients would be how I would like my own friends and family to be treated.

In my spare time I have a toddler who keeps me and my wife on our toes! We enjoy going for walks, meals out, and following Newcastle United!
